Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What affects the price in Bosorne
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Your questions about sink repair in Bosorne
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How much does sink repair cost in Bosorne?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

In many cases. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Widespread crazing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
